I Don't Have To Work Another Day Of My Life, Thank God, But I'm In A Place Where I Probably Work As Hard Or Harder Today Than I Ever Have, But I Do It Because I Want To, Not Because I Have To. What Is The Difference Between Work And Play? I Think The Difference Is Purpose. When Your Vocation Becomes Your Vacation, The Old Quote, You Know That's When You Made It.

More From Tony Robbins

Live Every Day With An Attitude Of Gratitude.

I'm Certainly Not Saying That My Life Is What Success Is All About. To Me, Success Is The Ongoing Process Of Striving To Become More.

It's Not About Your Resources, It's About Your Resourcefulness .

Resourcefulness

It Is Your Decisions, And Not Your Conditions, That Determine Your Destiny.

Long Ago, I Realized That Success Leaves Clues, And That People Who Produce Outstanding Results Do Specific Things To Create Those Results. I Believed That If I Precisely Duplicated The Actions Of Others, I Could Reproduce The Same Quality Of Results That They Had.

I Think You Got To Put Your Intimate Relationship First. If You Can Keep Your Woman First And Still Love Your Children, You Are Going To Create The Healthiest Environment.

To Me, Words Are Like Stickpins. I Can Throw A Word At You And It Will Bounce Right Off Your Body. But If I Take That Little Stickpin And Wire It To The Back Of An Iron Bar Called Human Emotion, I Can Put That Thing Right Through Your Heart.

What I Really Like Is Changing A Life, Helping Someone Change A Business, Change A Family. In The Beginning, It Was Because I Was Willing To Only Be Paid For A Result. I Wasn't A Therapist; There Were No Such Thing As Coaches Back Then. You Had To Be A Therapist And It Had To Be Paid For By Somebody, And I Saw What Therapists Did And I Was Honestly Disturbed By It, Because I See People In Therapy For Five Years And I Was, Like, "this Is Absurd."

Life Is Nothing But A Mirror Of Your Consistent Thoughts.

You Could Be Winning And Feel Like You're Losing Because The Scorecard You're Using Is Unfair.

The Art Of Fulfillment Is The Ability To Experience Not Only The Thrill Of The Chase, But Also The Magic Of The Moment, The Unbridled Joy Of Feeling Truly Alive.

Stay Committed To Your Decisions, But Stay Flexible In Your Approach.

I Think About What's The Best Way To Serve People. In Business, If You Do More For Others Than Anybody Else Does, You Dominate. That's The Bottom Line.

We Are The Only Beings On The Planet Who Lead Such Rich Internal Lives That It's Not The Events That Matter Most To Us, But Rather, It's How We Interpret Those Events That Will Determine How We Think About Ourselves And How We Will Act In The Future.

The Quality Of Your Life Is A Direct Reflection Of The Expectations Of Your Peer Group.

A Decision Made From Fear Is Always The Wrong Decision.

Decision Is The Ultimate Power. Decisions Shape Destiny.

I'm Both Challenged And Excited. My Excitement Is: I Get A Chance To Give Something Back. My Challenge Is: The Shortest Seminar I Usually Do Is 50 Hours.

To Me, Money Is A Vehicle; It's A Tool. I Could Use It As A Weapon To Destroy Things Or Money Can Create-you Can Create An Opportunity, You Can Create A Charity, You Can Create Things For Your Family, You Can Go Do Something For Your Family That Nobody Else Would Ever Do. You Can Create Educational Opportunities, You Can Feed People Overseas. And There's A Tremendous Leverage With Money, Or You Can Destroy People With It.

Age Is Not Based On Chronology, But Psychology.

The Best Way To Deal With Procrastination Is To Postpone It.

Procrastination

Your Biography Is Not Your Destiny, Your Decisions Are.

You Are Now At A Crossroads. This Is Your Opportunity To Make The Most Important Decision You Will Ever Make. Forget Your Past. Who Are You Now? Who Have You Decided You Really Are Now? Don't Think About Who You Have Been. Who Are You Now? Who Have You Decided To Become? Make This Decision Consciously. Make It Carefully. Make It Powerfully.

Make Your Goal To Do A Tremendous Amount To Improve Your Audience's Lives.

The Same Protection You Create For Yourself Becomes The Wall That Imprisons You.

I Was Working As Hard As A Human Being Could Work. That Tempo Hasn't Changed. I Just Have More Diversity And More Companies, And Now I've Got 33 Companies So My Dance Card Is Full. Four Kids And Three Grandkids, But I Love That Passionate Lifestyle. I Love Constantly Growing, I Love Seeing And Feeling That You Can Have An Impact. And Gradually It Went From Just Coaching To Actually Running Businesses Because I've Had Experiences That Were Life Changing.

[there Is] The Need To Feel Unique, Special, Important Or Needed. Everybody Has Those Needs, Including The People That Say I Don't Need To Be Special.

If We Surround Ourselves With People Who Are Successful, Who Are Forward-moving, Who Are Positive, Who Are Focused On Producing Results, Who Support Us, It Will Challenge Us To Be More And Do More And Share More. If You Can Surround Yourself With People Who Will Never Let You Settle For Less Than You Can Be, You Have The Greatest Gift That Anyone Can Hope For.

Negative Things You Tell Yourself Are Incantations, Turn Them Into Incantations.

Courage, Like Fear, Is A Habit. The More You Do It, The More You Do It, And This Habit-of Stepping Up, Of Taking Action-more Than Anything Else, Will Move You In A Different Direction.

It's Not Resources But Resourcefulness That Ultimately Makes The Difference.

Resourcefulness

Only Those Who Have Learned The Power Of Sincere And Selfless Contribution Experience Life's Deepest Joy: True Fulfillment.

Who Will You Have To Become, To Achieve All You Want?

If You Are Truly Flexible And Go Until... There Is Really Very Little You Can't Accomplish In Your Lifetime.

If You Want To Change Your Life You Have To Raise Your Standards.

Changing Your Life

God’s Wealth Circulates In My Life, It Flows To Me In Avalanches Of Abundance. All My Needs, Desires And Goals Are Met Instantaneously, For I Am One With God And He Is Everything!

No Matter How Difficult The Situation Is, It Won't Last Forever. What Follows The Night Is The Day. What Follows The Winter Is The Spring.

Throughout Human History, Our Greatest Leaders And Thinkers Have Used The Power Of Words To Transform Our Emotions, To Enlist Us In Their Causes, And To Shape The Course Of Destiny. Words Can Not Only Create Emotions, They Create Actions. And From Our Actions Flow The Results Of Our Lives.

If You Pursue Enrichment And Growth, You Must Increase Your References By Pursuing Ideas And Experiences That Wouldn't Be A Part Of Your Life If You Didn't Consciously Seek Them Out.

It's Not What We Do Once In A While That Shapes Our Lives. It's What We Do Consistently.

I Think All People's Lives Are Controlled By Their Decisions. You Look At People's Lives - It's Not Their Conditions, It's Their Decisions. So Everybody Has A Choice And Every Moment In Your Life You're Making Decisions.

The Secret Of Success Is Learning How To Use Pain And Pleasure Instead Of Having Pain And Pleasure Use You. If You Do That, You're In Control Of Your Life. If You Don't, Life Controls You.

My Life Has Changed Because Somebody Fed My Family On Thanksgiving When I Was Eleven Years Old. It Wasn't The Food That Changed Me, It Was The Fact That A Stranger Cared. That's What Changed My Life. That Made Me The Person I Am Today And Have Been For The Last 37 Years. All That Came Out Of That, That Simple Act Of Getting A Result.

Making A True Decision Means Committing To Achieving A Result, And Then Cutting Yourself Off From Any Other Possibility.

A Genuine Quality Of Life Comes From Consistent, Quality Questions.

Quality Of Life

The Secret To A Fulfilled Life Is Not Only To Do Well But Also To Do Good.

Here Is An Opportunity For You To Celebrate Like Never Before, My Own Power, And My Own Ability To Get Myself To Do Whatever Is Necessary.

If People Maintain The Belief Systems That Empower Them, They'll Keep Coming Back With Enough Action And Enough Resourcefulness To Succeed Eventually.

Resolutions Require Only Words. Results Take Action.

Surmounting Difficulty Is The Crucible That Forms Character.

Leaders Anticipate. Losers React

You And I Have That Same Power At Our Disposal Every Moment Of The Day. At The Moment, The Questions That We Ask Ourselves Can Shape Our Perception Of Who We Are, What We're Capable Of, And What We're Willing To Do To Achieve Our Dreams.

Any Time You Sincerely Want To Make A Change, The First Thing You Must Do Is To Raise Your Standards.

Most People Achieve Their Goals And Are Like, "is This All There Is?" We Are Supposed To Keep Growing So We Have Something To Get. What We Get Never Makes Us Happy. You Play Yourself When You Forget That.

We're Not Happy Unless We Feel Like We're Growing.

We've All Been Put To Sleep By Somebody Who's Told Us All These Wonderful Facts That Didn't Matter Because Information Without Emotion Is Not Retained.

Impossible Is Not A Fact... It's An Opinion. What's Impossible Only Remains So Until Someone Finds A Way To Do What Others Are Sure Can't Be Done.

You Must Find Something You Want To Live For That's Bigger Than Yourself - A Mission - Whether It's Your Children, A Business, A Non-profit, Whatever. That Pulls You To Achieve, Which Is Far More Sustainable Than To Push Yourself To. You Can Only Push Yourself For So Long.

Setting Goals Is The First Step In Turning The Invisible Into The Visible.

We're All Going To Face Extreme Stress In Our Lives, There's No One Who Is Going To Escape That. That's The One Thing, Rich Or Poor, I Don't Care Who You Are, You're Going To Lose.

Success Is Cutting Off All Of Your Options For Failure.

Success Failure

When You Go On An Extreme Diet, Your Body's Self-preservation Mechanism Responds By Burning Calories As Slowly As Possible. Of Course, That Makes It Much More Difficult To Lose Weight.

Don't Try To Be Perfect; Just Be An Excellent Example Of Being Human.

Most People, If They're Doing Really Well In Their Career, Often Don't Have The Right Intimacy With Their Partner, Or They're Doing Great In Their Home Life, But Their Finances Are A Mess.

One Belief That I've Developed To Carry Me Through Extremely Tough Times Is Simply This: God's Delays Are Not God's Denials.

You Can Use Your Story, Or Your Story Can Use You.

Who You Spend Time With Is Who You Become.

The Only Thing Keeping You From What You Want Is Your Story About Why You Can't Have It.

Nothing Tastes As Good As Looking Good Feels.

The Truth Is That Even In The Information Age, Information Is Not Enough. If All We Needed Were Ideas And Positive Thinking, Then We All Would Have Had Ponies When We Were Kids And We Would All Be Living Our "dream Life" Now. Action Is What Unites Every Great Success. Action Is What Produces Results. Knowledge Is Only Potential Power Until It Comes Into The Hands Of Someone Who Knows How To Get Himself To Take Effective Action. In Fact, The Literal Definition Of The Word "power" Is "the Ability To Act."

Positive Thinking

I Was Like, "if I Don't Change My Mind, If I Don't Change My Heart, If I Don't Develop Some Skill, I'm Always Going To Be Sleeping In My Car."

The Average American Thinks Billionaire Investors Are Going To Be Right Based On Some Talking Head. They Invest And They Have No Backup Plan. Americans Think These Guys Are Giant Risk-takers. The Truth Is They Believe In Taking As Little Risk As Humanly Possible, For The Maximum Amount Of Upside. They're Looking For That Spread Of Disproportionate Risk-reward.

The Difference Between Success And Failure Is Not Which Stock You Buy Or Which Piece Of Real Estate You Buy, It's Asset Allocation.

It Sounds So Stupid, So Basic, But When You Are Really In A Grateful State, You Are Like A Magnet For Joy.

Using The Power Of Decision Gives You The Capacity To Get Past Any Excuse To Change Any And Every Part Of Your Life In An Instant.

If You Develop The Absolute Sense Of Certainty That Powerful Beliefs Provide, Then You Can Get Yourself To Accomplish Virtually Anything, Including Those Things That Other People Are Certain Are Impossible.

The Best Way To Stay Away From They Is Really Simple. Stay With The People Who Have Some Passion. Stay With The People Who Know The Truth. I Like To Find The They And Turn Them Into We. I Like To Take The Theys And Herd Them. People That Are Skeptical, The Theys, I Can Bring Them To We As Much As I Can.

Without A Vision There Is No Possibility Of Creating Something Larger Than What Al-ready Exists. An Entrepreneur Has To Be Able To Bring Something To The Table Through His Or Her Vision That Is Not Being Provided By Others - A Special Way Of Meeting Needs, Caring For Others, Treating Patients, Or Marketing. An Entrepreneur Must Have Enormous Faith. Risk-taking Is Critical To The Development Of An Enterprise. You Will Not Take Risks Unless You Have The Faith To Do So.

I Think Spirituality Is A Part Of Everything. It Doesn't Need To Be Separated Out From Everything Else.

We Only Learn Our Limits By Going Beyond Them. I Propose That We All Commit Ourselves To The Process Of Constant And Never Ending Improvement.

Understand That All Emotions Serve You. Those You Once Thought Of As Negative Emotions Are Merely Calls To Action. For Example, If You Feel Frustrated It Means That You Believe Things Could Be Better, And They're Not. This Is A Call To Action Telling You There's Something You Must Do To Make This Better Now. This "negative" Emotion Is Actually A Gift If You Use It Effectively.

And Always Remember The Ultimate Truth: Life Is Not About Money, It's About Emotion.

Most Individuals Work Much Harder To Hang On To What They Have Than To Take The Necessary Risk To Shoot For Their Dreams.

Passion Is The Genesis Of Genius.

The Most Important Thing Is What You Already Do. It's Being Authentic. It's Being Curious, Trying To Discover Gifts.

Cultivate Curiosity. If You Really Want To Grow In Your Lifetime, Learn To Be As Inquisitive As A Child. Curious People Are Never Bored, And For Them Life Becomes An Unending Study Of Joy.

Your Current Situation Does Not Determine Your Future. Your Future Is Determined By Your Decision To Succeed.

If You Lose 50%, It Takes 100% To Get Back To Where You Started-and That Takes Something You Can Never Get Back: Time.

Your Imagination Is Ten Times More Potent Than Your Willpower. Unleashed, It Provides A Sense Of Certainty And Tenacious Vision That Goes Far Beyond Any Limitation Of The Past.

I Hated Motivators - Never Been A Motivator. Motivation Is Like A Warm Bath, And You Should Take A Bath Probably, But You Need More Than That; You Need Strategy. I Was A Strategist, But Nobody Responded To That, So I Was, Like, "ok, What Am I? I'm A Coach. I'm Not A Guru." As An Athlete, I Had Great Coaches, And I Was A Better Athlete Than Many Of Them, But They Still Were Better Than I Was As A Coach Because They Could See When I Couldn't See. I Thought, That's Great, Because I'm Not Better Than Anybody, But I Do Have The Skills That I Can Help People.

Feed And Strengthen Your Body. Fear Is Physical. When You Lift Weights Or Go For A Sprint, That Energy Flows Back Into Your Body And Restores You To Certainty.

Most People Have No Idea Of The Giant Capacity We Can Immediately Command When We Focus All Of Our Resources On Mastering A Single Area Of Our Lives.

No One Ever Achieved A Goal By Being Interested In Its Achievement. One Must Be Committed. In Fact, In Studying The Source Of People's Success, I've Found That Persistence Overshadows Even Talent As The Most Valued And Effective Resource In Creating And Shaping The Quality Of Life. Most People Give Up A Maddening Five Feet From Their Goal!

A Bit Of Baseball Wisdom: You Can't Steal Second With Your Foot On First.

Many People Try To Avoid Pressure, Yet The Absence Of Any Tension Or Pressure Usually Creates A Sense Of Boredom And The Lackluster Experience Of Life That So Many People Complain About.

Probably The Most Pervasive False Belief Most Of Us Harbor Is The Fallacy That Only Some Superhuman Act Would Have The Power To Turn Our Problems Around. Nothing Could Be Further From The Truth. Life Is Cumulative. Whatever Results We're Experiencing In Our Lives Are The Accumulation Of A Host Of Small Decisions We've Made As Individuals, As A Family, As A Community, As A Society, And As A Species.

Initiating And Going Through A Divorce With Four Kids Can Be A Brutal Experience, But Also A Tempering One. It Gave Me Perspective And Insight To Be Able To Find The Love Of My Life.

Love Of My Life

Some People Try To Deal With Money By Pretending It Doesn't Matter, But Financial Pressure Is Something That Affects Us All Every Day Of Our Lives.

If You Tell Yourself A Lie Long Enough, You'll Start To Believe It.

I Believe That You And I - And Everyone We'll Ever Meet - Has The Inborn Capacity To Be Heroic, To Take Daring, Courageous, And Noble Steps To Make Life Better For Others, Even When In The Short Term It Seems To Be At Our Own Expense. The Capacity To Do The Right Thing, To Dare To Take A Stand And Make A Difference, Is Within You Now.

People Always Try To Be Perfect. That's Why They Don't Start Anything. Perfection Is The Lowest Standard In The World. Because If You're Trying To Be Perfect, You Know You Can't Be. So What You Really Have Is A Standard You Can Never Achieve. You Want To Be Outstanding, Not Perfect.

To Have An Extraordinary Quality Of Life You Need Two Skills: The Science Of Achievement (the Ability To Take Anything You Envision And Make It Real) And The Art Of Fulfillment (this Allows You To Enjoy Every Moment Of It.

The Only Way A Relationship Will Last Is If You See It As A Place That You Go To Give, And Not A Place That You Go To Take.

Getting Back Together

Don't Surround Yourself With People Who Just Affirm You. Surround Yourself With People Who Challenge You.

Surround Yourself

Information Without Execution Is Poverty.

You Become What You Do Most Of The Time.

Awaken The Giant Within

Execution Will Trump Knowledge Every Day Of The Week.

Leaders Focus On What They Can Control, What They Have, And What They Want.

It's Your Decisions, Not Your Conditions, Which Shape Your Life.

Grace Is That Thing That Shows Up To Guide You When You've Done The First Two Steps And You're Intent On Doing Something Larger Than Just Yourself. That's When All Of The Sudden Things Are Great.

Tap Into People's Emotions. We've All Been Put To Sleep By A Speaker Who Just Gives The Facts. You Must Tap Into People's Feelings.

Only Those Who Have Learned The Power Of Sincere And Selfless Contribution Experience Life's Deepest Joy: True Fulfillment.. Put Yourself In A State Of Mind Where You Say To Yourself, "here Is An Opportunity For Me To Celebrate Like Never Before, My Own Power, My Own Ability To Get Myself To Do Whatever Is Necessary."

No One Ever Achieved A Goal By Being Interested In Its Achievement. One Must Be Committed.

I Look At Society And I Look At People And I Say... I'm Not Mr. Motivator. I Think You Get A Better Sense - I Believe In Energy. I Believe In Passion. I Believe In Teaching People.

The Quickest, Simplest, And Most Powerful Way I Know To Handle Any Emotion Is To Remember A Time When You Felt A Similar Emotion And Realize That You've Successfully Handled This Emotion Before.

Things Do Not Have Meaning. We Assign Meaning To Everything.

What We Link To Pleasure And What We Link To Pain Determines Our Destiny.

Life's Greatest Rewards Are Reserved For Those Who Demonstrate A Never-ending Commitment To Act Until They Achieve.

Rewards In Life

Every Problem Is A Gift - Without Problems We Would Not Grow.

For Changes To Be Of Any True Value, They've Got To Be Lasting And Consistent. Any Time You Sincerely Want To Make A Change, The First Thing You Must Do Is To Raise Your Standards... If You Don't Set A Baseline Standard For What You'll Accept In Life, You'll Find It's Easy To Slip Into Behaviors And Attitudes Or A Quality Of Life That's Far Below What You Deserve... Whatever Happens, Take Responsibility... The Only Thing That's Keeping You From Getting What You Want Is The Story You Keep Telling Yourself.

What Good Is Inspiration If It's Not Backed Up By Action?

The Quality Of My Life Was The Quality Of My Questions.

Every Time You Reach For Food, Ask Yourself, 'will This Cleanse Or Clog Me?'

I've Got A Mission To Help People Improve And Massively Change Their Lives And Create Breakthroughs, So I'm Always Looking For Them And I'm The First Guinea Pig.

Break Through The Bonds Of Your Past.

You Can Be A They And Be A Billionaire. Not All Billionaires Are Happy And Fulfilled. My Whole Thing Is, Add Value To Whoever You Meet. Sometimes, The Value Is Just Being Happy And Loving, Giving An Extra Couple Of Moments To Look Someone In The Eye. Nothing Replaces Authentic Feeling And Emotion.

All Human Progress Is Preceded By New Questions

People Who Experience Negative Or Stressful Emotions On An Ongoing Basis Are Less Healthy And Live Shorter Lives.

The First Thing These People Have Who Succeed, Who Are Fulfilled, Is That They’ve Decided What The Purpose Of The Game Is, At Least For Right Now.

Quality Questions Create A Quality Life.

The Emotions You Once Thought Of As Negative Are Merely A Call To Action. In Fact, Instead Of Calling Them Negative Emotions... Let's Call Them Action Signals.

Many People Make The Mistake Of Thinking That All The Challenges In Their Lives Would Dissipate If They Just Had Enough Money. Nothing Could Be Further From The Truth. Earning More Money, In And Of Itself, Rarely Frees People. It's Equally Ridiculous To Tell Yourself That Greater Financial Freedom And Mastery Of Your Finances Would Not Offer Your Greater Opportunities To Expand, Share, And Create Value For Yourself And Others.

There Is Always Room In Your Life For Thinking Bigger, Pushing Limits And Imagining The Impossible.

High Self-esteem Comes From Feeling Like You Have Control Over Events Not That Events Have Control Over You.

Ultimately, No Man Or Woman Is Happy Unless They Have Found A Way To Contribute Beyond Themselves.

One Of The Things I'm Best At Is Modeling. I Find Someone Who Is Best At Something I Want To Learn. Then I Model Them, And Learn It Myself. Then, When I've Proven It To Myself, I Teach It To Others.

Most People Aren't Really Happy, But They Aren't Unhappy Enough To Do Anything About It. That's A Dangerous Place To Be.

All Successful People Learn That Success Is Buried On The Other Side Of Frustration.

The Wealthiest Person On Earth Is The One Who Appreciates

We Are Defined By The Stories We Tell Ourselves.

Most Of Society Thinks That Biography Is Destiny, That The Past Equals The Future, And Of Course It Does If You Live There...but What We Really Have To Remind Ourselves Is That Decision Is The Ultimate Power.

The Only Way For Us To Have Long-term Happiness Is To Live By Our Highest Ideals.

You Can't Raise A Happy, More Resilient Kid If You're Not A Happy, More Resilient Adult.

Your Brain Is Not Designed To Make You Happy. That's Your Job!

Whatever Happens, Take Responsibility.

The Past Is A Place You Can Learn From, Not A Place You Want To Live.

Happiness And Success In Life Are Not The Result Of What We Have, But Rather Of How We Live. What We Do With The Things We Have Makes The Biggest Difference In The Quality Of Life.

Happiness And Success

It's Not That Diabetes, Heart Disease, And Obesity Runs In Your Family...it's That No One Runs In You Family!

Most People Settle For Connection, Because Love's Too Scary. They Don't Want To Lose That Feeling, That Super High Is Too Crushing So They Settle For The Comfort Of Connection.

The World Has Lost A Truly Great Soul Today. Stephen Covey Was A Man Whose 'work Was Love Made Visible.' He Touched Millions Of People By The Strength Of His Integrity And The Depth Of His Caring. He Was A Personal Friend, An Extraordinary Father, And A Model For What Human Beings Are Truly Capable Of. Please Join Us In Sending Love And Prayers To His Family.

If You Don't Educate Yourself, This Is An Area Of Your Life That It Is A Game.

Don't Put Off Joy And Happiness. Strive To Live Each Day To Its Fullest, Squeezing All The Joy You Can Out Of Each Moment. Instead Of Measuring Your Life's Value By Your Progress Toward A Single Goal, Remember That The Direction You're Headed In Is More Important Than Temporary Results.

Success Without Happiness Is Failure.

Trade Your Expectations For Appreciation And The World Changes Instantly.

Remember This: Anticipation Is The Ultimate Power. Losers React; Leaders Anticipate.

Take Thoughts And Turn Them Into Actions, Turn Them Into Results, Turn Your Dreams Into Reality. That's Really The Science Of Achievement.

Why Not Make Cheerfulness, Outrageousness, Playfulness A New Priority For Yourself? Make Feeling Good Your Expectation. You Don't Have To Have A Reason To Feel Good - You're Alive; You Can Feel Good For No Reason At All!

It's Your Unlimited Power To Care And To Love That Can Make The Biggest Difference In The Quality Of Your Life.

In Order For Things To Change You, You Must Be Able To Change.

We Live In A Culture That Expects Instantaneous Gratification For Everything, And The Web Has Only Enhanced That In Many Ways. It Empowers In Many Ways, But It Also Makes People Believe 'i Should Have Everything Right Now.'

Other Than Our Love Our Labor Is One Of The Most Sacred Gifts We Can Give. When Your Labor Is Your Love, Life Is Sacred. Love What You Do Or Change.

People Are My Greatest Resource.

Yesterday Does Not Equal Tomorrow. Forget The Past And Move Towards Your Goals.

I Used To Be, Like, "sleep When I Die."

Do Something Physical Every Day, Even If It's Just Five Or Ten Minutes Of Fast Walking A Couple Times A Day. That Tends To Replace Fear And Anger With Determination And Courage. It Can Change Your Identity, Your Momentum.

Some People's Weight Loss Is Impeded By An Impaired Thyroid. So I Think It's Worth Testing That At Your Next Physical Exam. If It's Off, Sometimes, That Can Be Caused By Excess Metals, Such As Mercury Or Cadmium. A Qualified M.d. Can Help You Cleanse Your Body Of Those.

In Order To Be Happy, Human Beings Must Feel They Are Continuing To Grow. Clearly, We Must Adopt The Concept Of Continuous Improvement As A Daily Principle.

Everybody's Life Is Either A Warning Or An Example. You've Got To Decide What You're Gonna Be And You Have To Draw A Line In The Sand.

Change Is Never A Matter Of Ability, It's Always A Matter Of Motivation.

Everybody Has A Different Strategy, But Everybody Agrees That Active Management Does Not Beat The Market.

You Can't Always Control The Wind, But You Can Control Your Sails.

What Kind Of Person Will I Have To Become In Order To Achieve All That I Want?

I Got Addicted To Lighting People Up, Just Seeing People So Happy 'cause They Rediscovered What They're Capable Of And So That Became My Life's Work.

A Woman Can Do Anything A Man Can Do Today And Then Some. She Can Even Have A Child Without A Man.

One Decision Can Change Your Life Forever.

What Are You Going To Focus On, That's What Affects Everybody's Life. If You Focus On What You Can't Control, You're A Little Crazy Inside, Angry And Depressed. If You Focus Most Of The Time On What You Don't Have Instead Of What You Do Have, You're Going To Be Extremely Unhappy.

Remember Anything You Want That's Valuable Requires You To Break Through Short-term Pain In Order To Gain Long-term Pleasure.

I'll Say - I Have Four Kids! I Married A Woman When I Was 24 Years Old. She Was 13 Years My Senior. She Had Been Married Twice Before. I Adopted Them. I Was 24 And Had A 17-year-old Son Instantly, An 11-year-old Daughter, A 5-year-old, And A Child On The Way. So I Had To Learn How To Become A Parent Very Quickly.

If You Raise Your Standards But Don't Really Believe You Can Meet Them, You've Already Sabotaged Yourself. You Won't Even Try; You'll Be Lacking The Sense Of Certainty That Allows You To Tap The Deepest Capacity That's Within You... Our Beliefs Are Like Unquestioned Commands, Telling Us How Things Are, What's Possible And Impossible And What We Can And Can Not Do. They Shape Every Action, Every Thought And Every Feeling That We Experience. As A Result, Changing Our Belief Systems Is Central To Making Any Real And Lasting Change In Our Lives.

I Don't Think I Have Any Regrets, But I Can Tell You What I Learned From Mistakes Or Failures. I've Had Plenty Of Those. I Just Don't Believe In Regret, And My Economic World Is Not What I Would Ever Have Imagined; I'm Financially Free.

In Fact If You're A Mother Or A Father, You're Filled With Oxytocin When You Have A Child. It Makes You Love The Baby, Even Though They Look Like A Lizard .you'll Think It's The Beautiful Thing In The World.

Leaders Spend 5% Of Their Time On The Problem & 95% Of Their Time On The Solution. Get Over It & Crush It!

Every Lion Has A Time In Their Life When A Thorn Has Got To Them At One Point.

Because The Challenges Will Continue To Show Up In Life, But If You Have The Inner Strength - Whether That Be Your Faith, Your Determination Or Your Incredible Love For Self, For God And For Others - Then I Think You'll Have The Capacity To Live A Life That's Extremely Fulfilled.

We Surround Ourselves With What Is Better Or See Other People As Role Models. You Go, "if They Can Do This, So Can I." That Starts To Trigger People, As Well.

Things Are Only Impossible Until Somebody Does What Another Believes Can't Be Done.

Your Story Is Where You Take It To, Not Where You Start.

Why Wait To Be Memorable?

It's Not About The Resources You Have Available. It's About The Resourcefulness You Have Within You.

The Meaning And The Purpose Behind Some Events Are Unknowable. This Is The Ultimate Test Of Our Faith. We Must Trust That Everyone In Life Is Here To Learn Different Lessons At Different Times, That Good And Bad Experiences Are Only The Perceptions Of Man. After All, Some Of Your Worst Experiences Have Truly Been Your Best. They've Sculpted You, Trained You, Developed Within You A Sensitivity And Set You In A Direction That Reaches Out To Impact Your Ultimate Destiny.

Power Flows To Those Who Serve.

Always Remember That You Are Bigger Than The Moment, You Are More Than Anything That Could Ever Happen To You.

If You Talk About It, It's A Dream, If You Envision It, It's Possible, But If You Schedule It, It's Real.

The Most Important Thing You Can Do To Achieve Your Goals Is To Make Sure That As Soon As You Set Them You Immediately Begin To Create Momentum.
